JESUS OUR GUARANTEE.
- Pas to r T ib i Pe te r s
In keeping with [the oath’s greater strength and force], Jesus has become the Guarantee of a better (stronger) agreement [a more excellent and more advantageous covenant].
I am in a better and stronger covenant. My covenant is more advantageous than any other covenant that exist any where. Jesus is the guarantor of my covenant, it was signed in his blood. I change destinies and manifest greatness!
There was a previous covenant until the present covenant was introduced. The scriptures describe this present covenant as a better and stronger covenant. It is also referred to as a more excellent and a more advantageous covenant. This is the new covenant you have been
brought into by your faith in Christ Jesus. Jesus is the guarantee of this covenant.
The idea of being a guarantee or guarantor is a legal term, which implies that Jesus is answerable for the fulfilment of all the promises in the covenant. Jesus stands giving surety or bail. The confidence or
assurance for the performance of the benefits of the covenant is not from anyone other than Jesus Christ himself.
Jesus stood for Deity on one hand in the enactment of the covenant and stood for humanity on the other hand. He is God’s guarantee to man and man’s guarantee to God. This is why our entry into the covenant is through him alone. Jesus is the mediator of the new covenant. The
authenticity of a contract or agreement is dependent on the integrity of the signatories or the guarantor. Jesus Christ is both the signatory (he
signed on your behalf) and the guarantor of the covenant. Every advantage and benefit promised in the covenant is yours.

FIRST OR SECOND COVENANT?
- Pas to r T ib i Pe te r s
For if that first covenant had been without defect, there would have been no room for another one or an attempt to institute another one.
Jesus Christ is the mediator of the new covenant. He brought me into the second and better covenant. I am a partaker of God’s real and permanent plan. I change destinies and manifest greatness!
It is important to understand the difference between the first covenant and the covenant you are now in also known as the second covenant. God himself found fault with the first covenant. The first covenant also known as the mosaic covenant was limited to the Jews and was
symbolic. While the second covenant is for all of mankind and is the real deal.The first covenant has been cancelled and the second covenant has
been instituted.
Some believers act like there are two covenants and they can choose anyone they prefer. The only operational covenant between God and man is that which Jesus Christ was a mediator of. The first was a type of what the second really is. If the real has come, is there still any need for
what was used to represent it? The Second covenant is not a continuation of the first covenant; it is called a new covenant, referred to
as another covenant.
There is no suggestion from scripture of a third covenant, which means the second is the final covenant. Actually this second covenant is the real
and permanent arrangement God had for humanity, while the first covenant was the symbolic and temporary arrangement.
You are in the real and permanent arrangement of the eternal God.

BY HIS OWN BLOOD. - Pas to r T ib i Pe te r s
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
The Blood of Jesus Christ is a “one time, all purpose” sacrifice. My sins are forgiven and judgement is eternally suspended for me. I am settled forever. I change destinies and manifest greatness!
There is so much talk about the blood sacrifices of the Old Testament. Animals were not only kept for the eating of their flesh , they were also
kept because their blood was useful for sacrifices. All these sacrifices only provided temporary or partial relief to it’s beneficiaries.
The only blood that could provide permanent relief is that of Jesus Christ; A lamb without blemish or spot, offering innocent and precious blood. By his own blood he entered into the Holy place once. With the blood of goats and calves they had to enter every year, because the atoning
capacity of animal blood could only hold back judgement for one year. The Blood of Jesus has capacity to blot out sin like it never existed and suspend judgement eternally. Jesus doesn’t have to repeat the sacrifice
he made for you. It is a one time all purpose sacrifice.
The Blood of Jesus has obtained for you eternal redemption, this is superior to a yearly redemption. Your redemption is not time bound or seasonal; it is forever. By his own blood he gained a one time entry and
obtained an eternal redemption for you. The Blood of Jesus has settled you forever.

HOW TO PROVOKE SOMEONE THE RIGHT WAY.
- Pas to r T ib i Pe te r s
Remember what it says: “Today when you hear His voice, don’t harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled.”
I am a product of God’s love and a dispenser of it too. My acts of love and good works will provoke someone else to acts of love and good works. I change destinies and manifest greatness!
There is a right way to provoke someone. A provocation that stirs up holy emotions within others. The thought of provoking someone is mostly associated with negativity. People are provoked to anger, jealousy or envy. You can also deliberately provoke someone to love and good works. The New Living Translation (NLT) says “Let us think of ways to
motivate one another to acts of love and good works”.
The purpose of this provocation is to motivate someone to acts of love and good works. Your act of love and good deed will provoke someone
else to acts of love and good deeds.
You are a product of God’s love and a dispenser of it too. Step up today purposefully to provoke and incite a neighbour, colleague or friend around you to acts of love and good deeds. Especially those within the household of faith. Don’t be surprised to meet folks who have been provoked to retaliate viciously to others and are awaiting for their
opportunity to unleash their bitterness. You will be on the look out today for opportunities to unleash your love
and kindness on others.

BLESSED- CONCERNING
THINGS TO COME.- Pas to r T ib i Pe te r s
By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
I am in Christ Jesus. I am blessed concerning things to come. My Future is full of hope and light. There are prophetic words awaiting my entry into tomorrow. I change destinies and manifest greatness!
There were certain things the Patriarchs of old understood about the blessing.There is so much to glean from their attitude and actions
towards spiritual things. Jacob and Esau were both young men when Isaac their Father blessed them. He didn’t bless them just for a day, he
blessed them concerning things to come.
Isaac spoke words into the future of Jacob and Esau. The words went into the future of these young men and waited for them to come. Jacob and Esau were not the only folks who were blessed concerning things to
come. You also as a believer in Christ has been blessed by God concerning things to come. God has blessed you with every spiritual blessing through your union with Christ. You were not just blessed for yesterday or today. You are blessed concerning things to come.
There are words God has spoken into your future, they are waiting for youto come and take advantage of them.This is one reason you should not be afraid for tomorrow. What awaits you tomorrow is not gloom and
darkness; there is hope and light. There are several specific pronouncements from scripture that have taken care of the things to
come for you. You are blessed concerning things to come.
